My condolences to the Kruzich family. You and Fred are all in my prayers. I will miss Fred so much. With his kind and gentle demeanor; his humility; and most of all, his love for Christ and His Holy Church, Fred was an example to us all.
"O God of spirits and of all flesh, Who hast trampled down death and overthrown the Devil, and given life to Thy world, do Thou, the same Lord, give rest to the souls of Thy departed servants in a place of brightness, a place of refreshment, a place of repose, where all sickness, sighing, and sorrow have fled away."
Memory be Eternal!
